Heya guys,
unbelievable, but it's just the first time now that I've tried out Netplay with Dolphin.
Unfortunately, it didn't work. My friend and I used the same new version of Dolphin (from yesterday, also tried that 11 months old DC-Netplay-build, though), the same game version and mostly the same settings (some differing graphics settings like IR shouldn't be an issue, right?).
The issue is a 'connection failed'. Now, maybe I did something stupidly wrong. We don't have to boot up the game before, right?
I just start netplay, write some 'nickname', select a game and click on 'host', right? Then my friend just puts my IP into the 'Address' field and clicks 'connect', right?
So I thought it was some firewall issue (and I'm not very good with that kind of stuff). I made an exception for Dolphin (or rather two, for in- and outgoing stuff) in the Windows firewall and in my router config... well, that's kinda complicated so I couldn't really figure it out. However, even when I disabled the router firewall, it didn't work.
Any idea?
